Sol-Gel Synthesis and Characterizations of LiCF₃SO₃-CeO₂ Solid Composite Electrolytes

Abstract:

Composite solid electrolyte systems composed of different compositions of lithium triflate (LiCF3SO3) as host, and cerium oxide (CeO2) as dispersoid were prepared using sol-gel method. The electrical, structural and morphological properties of the composite solid electrolytes were investigated using impedance spectroscopy (IS), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). Maximum room temperature conductivity was obtained for the system of 60 mol % LiCF3SO3 – 40 mol % CeO2.
